Summer is fast approaching and between the 24/7 partying(Ignore this if it doesn’t apply to you), meeting up with friends, enjoying the sun at the beach, and other things, the last thing that usually comes to mind is how and what to do with your hair.
As black women and women in general, our hair can be such a nuisance, and trying to decide which style to put it in is not cute at all.
Beads can increase the visual appeal of any braided hairstyle from 1 to 100. Braids also allow you to keep your hair neat and out of your face this summer.
All you have to do after getting braids with beads is regular maintenance and that’s just about it.
Whether you are getting Fulani braids, box braids, knotless braids or simple cornrows, beads will elevate the hairstyle by far.
Today’s blog post features 30 different low maintenance braided hairstyles with beads to try this summer.
What you’ll need to know before getting your beaded braids
1.If you are tender headed, you don’t have to sit for those long hours to get your hair braided, you can get natural hair braids and elevate the look with beads.
2.Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner, do a deep conditioning treatment if you feel extra.
3.Stretch out your hair and apply an anti itch spray and heat protectant.
4.Get the necessary braiding hair extensions in advance or buy from your stylist if they stock it.
5.Tell your stylist not to braid the hair too tightly to avoid hair and scalp damage.
6.All the beads can be found at your local beauty supply store, Amazon or at your stylist’s salon.
Ps. If there’s one product that I would highly recommend you use on your hair immediately after washing and before braiding, it has to be Blue Magic Conditioners. It results in smooth, soft and easily manageable hair so please use it after washing your hair. These products are an absolute game changer.
My mom used it on me and my siblings every time before getting our hair done, and I still use it now before getting my hair braided and it works like a charm.
They come in a number of variants; Mango and Lime, Vitamin E, bergamot and the original Indian hemp hair and scalp conditioner and more.
The 4 variants down below work wonders but chose the one that tickles your fancy. The variants are as seen below.
